First Communion 2014

Details

Published: May 15, 2014

Second graders had been preparing all year for this day, First Holy Communion. This is the day they could taste and see the goodness of the Lord through his blessed sacrament, the Eucharist. The children had learned all about the Mass, the Eucharist, memorized prayers, went to reconciliation, and practiced for this special day. The little girls all dressed in white and the little boys wearing ties finally got to share with the rest of God's family at the table of the Lord. Congratulations to all the boys and girls as you grow closer to Jesus. For more photos click here.

St Mary's Information

St. Mary's Catholic School is a Pre-Kindergarten through Eighth Grade School of the Archdiocese of Omaha. Our mission is to provide a Catholic education that nurtures students' hearts and minds to become servant leaders in an ever-changing world.

Our philosophy of education is to offer a five-day program to assist families in teaching those truths, skills, and ideals, which are necessary for Christian living. We believe that education must develop the faculties and abilities of the whole child: spiritually, intellectually, physically, and emotionally. To help achieve this, our faculty and staff are an integral part of the formation of Christian community and dedicate themselves to the task of developing Christian citizens.
